Bat
Houses

There are 45 species of bats that live in the United States. Although there
are many myths, bats are shy, timid and very beneficial. They eat 33%
- 100%
of their body weight in insects every night. That's 500 - 1000 mosquitoes,
moths, stinkbugs, leafhoppers or other horticultural pests removed per
hour,
by one bat, per night, depending on the time of year. Our bat houses are
great for residential, agricultural, commercial, and institutional purposes
in all areas of the
country.

2 Chambered Nursery Bat House

This is our new design for somone who may be a novice, or just nervous about
attracting bats. It will house a smaller colony, about half, of the 3
chamber
bat house. Made of the same western red cedar and stainless steel as the
larger bat house.

No pressure treated
wood, no plywood! We don't use them in the construction of our bat houses
because they don't stand up to the environment, and because of the possible
problems
that may be associated with chemicals used to treat the wood. We believe
that
the materials that we use are the best choice available for the construction
of our products. We use western red cedar for the qualities it possesses,
extreme rot resistance, naturally insect resistant, lighter in weight than
pine or plywood for easier mounting, stays very stable when exposed to the
environment, extremely low odor, and it comes from the mill already
very rough. There is more than one kind of cedar and we have had discussions
about this with others that claim cedar is wrong for bat houses. They often
confuse the "closet" type cedar which is eastern red, with what
we use. Western red cedar costs more but in the long run it means low to
no maintenance because of it's qualities. Bat Conservation International,
who certifies our bat houses, recommends the use of durable woods such as
cedar.
